Rock Band 2 opens merch concession

The merch concession’s been the life-blood for many a touring band – sometimes that single T-shirt sale is all the cash you need (and have) to make it to your next gig – and now merchandise is coming to Rock Band.

Seems that Rock Band 2 maker Harmonix and MTV Games are going to start offering gamers the chance to order merchandise bearing the logo of the fake band you create in the game.

It’s simple to do – gamers must upload their band logo using supplied software and can then order a T-shirt, keychain or a bumper sticker. You can even order a 3D figure of your character.
